How to Make Maple Yams With Apples Cranberries

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the cubed yams, diced apples, and cranberries with olive oil, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
  3. Spread the mixture in a single layer in a large baking dish.
  4. Pour the optional chicken broth or water over the yams (this will prevent them from drying out).
  5. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until the yams are tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
  6. If the yams are browning too quickly, reduce the oven temperature slightly. You can check for doneness by easily piercing a yam cube with a fork.
  7. Serve warm as a delicious and healthy side dish. Enjoy!
